SIP Disappears after MessageBox.Show() -- Doesn't come back
I have strange problem that SIP disappears after the messagebox.Show() is called and never shows up again.
1. I have 5 forms and One form is the startup form. I am displaying other 4 forms as ShowDialog when particular button is pressed in the MainForm.
2. Whenever I have informational message box MessageBox.Show() the SIP disappears. After I click OK in the message box, the SIP still doesn't comeback. If I remember where the SIP was before and if I click that place SIP appears again. So SIP appears again only when there is only 2 Sub Menu Items. In that case SIP Icon was in the bottom middle of the MenuBar. In these cases SIP comes back after I click wher the SIP was.
3. But SIP doesn't come back when the SIP was at the Bottom right Corner. I had to close the form and re-open it. In this case there is 3 or more SubMenu items on the form.
Can some one help me to solve this problem.

Hi,
I am using vb.Net in VS2005 CF2 with WM5 device and also PPC 2003 device. I face the same problem, where after prompt a messagebox, the SIP keyboard disappear. I can't make it appear even I use me.menu = me.mainmenu1 because I use a Toolbar with toolbarbutton. Please help me to solve this as I had try to debug the problem for several day. The application work fine in VS2003 CF 1 with PPC 2003 device.
Following is my code:
Public
Class Form1Friend WithEvents ToolBarButton_Setting As System.Windows.Forms.ToolBarButton Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.ToolBarButton_Setting = New System.Windows.Forms.ToolBarButton
Me.ToolBar1.Buttons.Add(Me.ToolBarButton_Setting)
End sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
MessageBox.Show(
"Please enter User ID")End Sub
End
Class * Someone had told me to soft reset the device and it work now. But I believe this problem will come back again as it happen before and I just don't know what trigger it. If there is some code which can prevent it from happen, I will feel more safer. The device I use is HP iPAQ hx2700 series and O2 XDA II. Thank you
Try
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
MessageBox.Show(
"Please enter User ID");
this.Menu = this.MainMenu1;
End Sub The amove code is C# . Please convert that into VB.NET. Make sure no other Display or Menu related code executes after this Button1_Click event. That will reset the menu and make it disappear. If possible tyr the SIP on the Visual Studio and have your own menu and SIP. These are the only ways I know of.. GoodLuck
